Waltzing In the Witchwood

In the twilight 
       waiting ,
          breathing
watching others ,
searching,seething,
lying in the fragrant flowers
"neath your castle's  spiraled towers........

   Lying in the witch  wood
the little people pines,
murmuring their wind words,
whispering their rhymes .

  Making plans for Midnight
when the moon is low,
Shaking off the needles
falling soft below.

Branches entertwining,
in a circle dance
spinning in the moonlight
till the thrilling trance

turns them into ladies,
with their lords in tow,
waltzing in the Witch wood
where no one else will  know.
